Yeah, I typoed my example, should have been: There are paths: 1 2 3 5 1 2 4 5 If you prepend your ASN, you get: 1 1 2 3 5 1 1 2 4 5 No difference. If you send the ISP a prepend community for 3, you get: 1 2 2 3 5 1 2 4 5 And you just forced all traffic to the second, shorter path. For only customers that are dual homed to 3 & 4 without affecting other traffic. -- Leo Bicknell - bickn...@ufp.org PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
